S’pore sunny, Malaysia gloomy from Indonesian smog

SINGAPORE: Singapore woke up to clear blue skies on Monday thanks to favorable winds but Malaysia was still being suffocated by smog from forest fires in Indonesia, where cloud-seeding flights have produced little rain.

Officials in Singapore, which bore the brunt of the smog last week, warned against complacency, saying the situation could deteriorate again if monsoon winds carrying smoke and particulates from Indonesia’s Sumatra island changed direction.
